Ingredients
- 2 pounds Russet potatoes peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 3 large eggs hard-boiled and finely chopped
- 1 small red onion finely diced
- 1/2 large dill pickle finely diced
- 1 cup celery finely diced
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill finely chopped
- 1/4 cup green onions finely chopped
Dressing:
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 3 tablespoons pickle juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- Kosher salt and Ground black pepper to Taste
Instructions
- Wash, peel, and cube the potatoes. Add them to a large pot over high heat and add enough water that would cover the potatoes about 1 1/2 inches.
- Once the water starts boiling, add 1 teaspoon of salt, and cook for 12-15 minutes, just until fork tender. Be careful not to over-cook the potatoes.
- Add the cooked potatoes to a colander and drain. Transfer to a large bowl and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and let them cool to room temperature.
- Finely dice the cooled eggs and add to the cooled potatoes.
- Add celery, red onion, green onion, pickle, and fresh dill.
- In a medium bowl mix all the Salad Dressing ingredients until fully combined. Pour over the potatoes and gently mix, careful to not entirely crush the potatoes.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours before serving. The potatoes will harden a little once they are cooled.
- Garnish with dill, green onions and pickles before serving.
